Android/iOS/Web: Proven is a job search engine and mobile app that makes finding the perfect gig for you super easy. The app guides you to great jobs in your area, and lets you apply for them via the web or right on your smartphone while you're stuck commuting to your current terrible job.

You can give the service a try from the web to see if there are listings near you, filter based on distance, but when you're ready to apply (or if you want to use the mobile apps), you'll need an account. Like any other job board, you can sign up for free, upload a few resumes you want to use to apply for different types of jobs, and start searching. If you find something you like, click apply to fire off a resume and cover letter to that hiring manager. The mobile apps are where Proven really shines. Applying for jobs on your phone is a super-fast experience, and if you have a solid resume and cover letter, it's a one-tap process.

Proven offers job listings from companies that list with them exclusively, Beyond, SimplyHired, and Craigslist. Best of all, since a lot of the listings at Proven are either in their database exclusively, from the hiring company directly, or from Craigslist, you actually have a better chance at getting a response to your application than if you used a bigger aggregator or some complicated HR system to funnel in your resume. You can even create, tweak, and edit resumes in the app before you send them, so they're customized for the job you want.
